How long have you stayed awake for, for a game?

[Spaceshaman]

I was up 2 whole days without sleep to get myself the first copy of halo 2

Well, since I'm older, I pulled those allnighters back in 80's for C64 games.

Never stood up past 02:00 AM, never woke up before 07:00 AM for a video game.

I can push about 30 hours regularly when I'm really into whatever I'm playing. 36 hours once with the launch of WotLK when I was in a heated race for realm first 80 Blood Elf.

I think the longest was when WotLK released. I took about a week off of work, bought the CE locally and went to a friend's place in another town 45mins away, and held myself up in his apartment with four other friends for the next... two and a half days without sleep? DKs were mad fun to level as, and I had enough soda and ramen to keep me happy for a while.

Never been willing to do that since then. My sleep schedule was soooo fucked after that event.

when diablo 3 hit i was awake for about 42 hours straight ...
gonna do the same - with the same people - when MoP launches and i'm looking forward

ahh 42 hours of error 32 sucks

2½ days (~60 hours) at WOTLK launch, my eyes were hurting like mad at that point so I had to go sleep, couldn't even look at anything bright like a computer screen anymore.

I've noticed I can't really do that anymore though, it's just not worth it. 24 hours is no problem but much longer than that and I start feeling weird.

about 4 days for ME2, it killed my PS3.

Around 108 Hr straight w/ only piss shit and eat breaks in between, need less to say after I slept and woken up I smell like crap and feels like I just crawled out of the pits of Hades.
That was only doable when in the teens and skipping school, now I'm nearing my 30s with a underpaid work I can only endure a maximum of 3 Hr per sitting.

An entire week for Uncharted 2. Yeah I'm not kidding...

[Shadzta]

40+ hours on Cataclysm release, of gaming. Stopped at any given time, no more than 10 minutes to eat, piss, shower ( more so for must stay awake purposes ). That isn't including the probably 8 hours prior to release as it launched at 4pm my time ( western australia ). Was quite intense...by the time I hit the last bit of twilight highlands I literally couldnt comprehend what quests wanted me to do...I was reading it and even read it out aloud fine but just didnt like mentally couldnt function the fuck was going on that was weird and scary...so naturally instead of going to bed because my brain was shutting down i Hit 85 and stayed up a little longer to figure out which factions I wanted to chase...did some dungeons etc etc.

I've played WoW for 36 hours straight before, but that's not special. I played Skyrim for 10 hours straight when it released, that totaled to something like 35 hours awake.
